Fool’s Paradise April: Famous for a fool’s day, showers that bring May flowers and a Chinese holiday, Qing Ming Jie 清明节 (Tomb Sweeping Day), where the dead are honored with family trips to tidy up their ancestors’ graves. It’s as good excuse as any for the living to get out, book in hand, and enjoy the early spring weather.

Find real saving’s, not simply fool’s gold, with these:

 
 
In the spirit of Qing Ming Jie...
Tomb It May Concern or Grave Matters
Grave Bed

I know death approaches     it’s not tragic
my hopes are at peace in a forest of pines
overlooking the ocean from a distance     like a pond
afternoon sunlight keeping me mottled company

a man’s time is up     and man’s world goes on
I must rest in the middle
passerby say the branches droop
passerby say the branches are growing

1988.1 from Nameless Flowers: Selected Poems of Gu Cheng
 
 
What's New at China Books It’s no joke. We’re proud to announce that Kelly Feng is now our new marketing director. Don’t worry, Kelly’s nobody’s fool and far from green; she has a wealth of experience at China Books as both marketing assistant and in customer service. Anyone who’s had the pleasure of dealing with her knows how courteous and capable she is.

As for our departing dancin’ fool of a marketing director, Chellis Ying, a hearty xiexie for all her hard work. We’ve no doubt she’ll succeed swimmingly at any endeavor where words count--hasta la vista!
